Sounds legit. Let's go with that.

Well, the strike was my suggestion initially, though I wasn't the first to down tools. At least in this context.

Spending your life waiting for the messiah to come and save the world is like waiting around for the straight piece to come in Tetris. Even if it comes, by that time you've accumulated a mountain of shit so high that you're fucked no matter what you do.

We have about 8 on AF would you say? Maybe a little more. Very few seem to be interested in honest debate.

Hey Rob, I have noticed that at AF some theists stick around for a long time, not so much here other than KC. I was taken aback when Fr00do was ousted from AF recently, I thought he might show up here but no sign of him yet.

We mostly get two types of theists here, the driveby kind, 1 or 2 posts and gone. And then the ones I think of as “shooting stars”, they burn brightly for a couple of hundred posts in a very short time then poof, they disappear.

Right now the two longest running theists are Q and Call_of_the_Wild, the latter is having a one on one with Dark Phoenix in the Boxing Ring if you want to check that out.

I have found that most of the time theists come in here and commit a major faux pas right off the bat thus garnering an immediate pile on and guaranteeing a brief stay. These are:

1. I’m here to tell you what and how you think and why you’re wrong. (Becasuse as we all know we just love to be lumped together in one big generalization).
2. I’m here to prove that God exists using science. (Even though I don’t understand a word of it).
3. I’m here to copy-pasta since I don’t have an original thought in my head.

I’m sure I’m missing a few points but I think that covers 98% of them.

FC, thank you for the laugh. Post 110 sorta made my head spin and I was not risking falling over by reading it twice. Wow... but I did, however like the boxing match suggestion and how each contestant was described. That was fun.
